Travel Oddities
Near Raeford, N. C. (US ISA) i.i
Bethel Presbyterian Church (built
1859) is a church Bible in which
entries reputedly indited by Gen
eral Sherman when Federal troops
came through the region. They in
clude: "Mr. McNeill Will preach a
sermon on the illusions of pleasure
and hope."
"Mr. McNeill will pleae prove
the absurdity of the unlversalist
doctrine.'- .-
"Mr. McNeill will plaasa preach
a sermon from The First Bplstle of
John, 4 chapter."
"Mr. McNeill will please pray for
Old Abe.
"By order of W. T. Sherman, Maj
or General Commander U, S. For
ces." Against the Law
In Plnehurst, N. C, it is against
the law for a train to whistle, or a
dog to bark after dark. And in Dunn
it is unlawful to snore loud enough
to disturb your neighbor.
Comfort :
On NC 41 is the village of Com
fort, N. C, Once the place was so
remote, and had such a wretched
road leading to It, that it was called
Misery. Then came a highway, and
people could ride to Misery in com
fort Whereupon : the name was
changed.
Hell
Talking about names. When you
drive along US 17 (The Ocean High
way), and come to Onslow and
Jones Counties in North Carolina
you will be on the edge of Hell and
Purgatory swamps. One time the
state forest warden of Onslow
County called state headquarters to
report a fire raging in Hell. He had
a hard time convincing his super
iors that he wasn't on a binge. The
two swamps are owned by the N. C.
Dept. of Public Education and are
for sale. Wanta buy a piece of Hell?
